Romance
Sometimes, asking is the only way to get what you need... Miranda "Andie" Griffith, has kept a tight lock on her life and emotions for the eight years since her husband died. The young widow, content with the remote sanctuary she has carved out of twenty densely wooded acres in northwest Oregon, has a new and definitely unwelcome neighbor. Max Daniels has moved into the deserted ramshackle next door and the towering homicide detective could not be happier with his plans for early retirement; nor could he be more clueless as to the motives that govern his reclusive neighborβs erratic behavior. The one thing Max fully comprehends, in all its many aspects, is the challenge of pursuit. Determined to learn more about the waspish beauty who wants nothing to do with him, Max begins a relentless and methodical chase. But before he can convince her of his inestimable value as more than just the guy next door, Max must first gain her confidence. Andie is not certain of the greater health hazard, an odious stalker or her irrepressible, amorous neighbor. Ever since Max moved in, the normally hardy and self- sufficient nurse has had one calamitous mishap after another. Having him so close has disrupted her equilibrium and turned her into a nervous, accident- prone klutz. His rich velvet voice could charm a cobra into an early molt and one look into those smoky green eyes has left no doubt about the seductive danger he presents. Her carefully constructed, sedate lifestyle has been turned upside down and allowing herself to trust again could mean a new chance for heartbreak...or love.
